Julie is here!!

thanks assj :D

well its friday and that means its party night. i am now in ketosis so i know i wont pick at the sausage rolls later.
am taking the day off from packing today. managed to get lots done this week and its just half the kitchen and all the big bulky things left to pack now! so its all kind of last minute things to pack.
sneaky peak on the scales say i'm 1 and half pounds down and dont officialy weigh in till tuesday. yay. maybe the capsiplex tablets really do work as i am not exercising at all atm but i am constantly active which is more than i was before!
have a fab friday peeps. be good ;)
 
morning. i have a little bit of a hangover lol. had a great night. did not eat a single bit of food that i shouldnt have :D
going to have sausage and bacon for brekie instead of my shake and going to use my snack allowence so i can totaly pig out. i need to soak up last nights vodka ;)
 
hey hun, did you say you were in ketosis? just wanted to say be careful about drinking alcohol if you are, i found this on the lipotrim forum:

"DO NOT DRINK ALCOHOL IF YOU ARE KETOTIC!
Alcohol is a powerful inhibitor of gluconeogenesis. In fact, it forces part of the gluconeogenic metabolic process into reverse. This means that if all the glucose in the blood is being derived from gluconeogenesis then the consumption of alcohol will inevitably cause the blood glucose level to fall. Worse still, the alcohol also stops ketone body production, thus leaving the brain entirely without fuel.
A person who is ketotic is 100% reliant on gluconeogenesis to maintain adequate levels of glucose in the blood. If, under these circumstances alcohol is taken, the person will become disorientated and might lose consciousness, not just from the alcohol, but from low blood sugar. Needless to say, this could be very dangerous, and even fatal.
Alcohol does not have these effects if the glycogen stores in the liver are normal. Under these circumstances the blood glucose level in the blood is maintained by the breakdown of liver glycogen, a process that is not influenced by alcohol. If a person becomes confused under these circumstances it is due simply to the pharmacological effects of the alcohol

thats an interesting read. thanks.
i am used to being in ketosis and drinking back when i was doing atkins. the only side effect i found it has on me was that i only need a few glasses before the drink hits me! dont drink as much as i used too!! x
 
i feel good. feel like i am now in the right zone again. was finding things so hard but i think over these past few days i have got back on track and hope to see a good weight loss on tuesday. one thing i am very worried over is i am going on holiday in a weeks time. its only for 5 days but i am dreading the weight gain which i know i will gain. least i have the capislpex to take before i dance with the kids (yes dancing with kids is exercise lol) and i have the de-carb to help before i eat a jumbo hotdog lol.
have promised myself to be very good for next few days!!! watch this space lol
 
looking forward to my weigh in tomorrow as i have been so good this week. :D
my daughter gets her gcse results tomorrow so i have a stressfull teenager on my hands atm. eek getting ready to run away lol ;)
 
yay lost 2lbs this week. i am only 1lb away then i will be getting rid of my last stone. just hope i dont put it all back on on holiday next week :rolleyes:
 
Well done,,,, im sure you can be pretty good on holiday and what you gain will soon go

How did your daughter do in her exams
 
thanks, she done great in her exams. very proud of her. :D
size 12 jeans now fit and i went shoe shopping today and the size 5's which is the size i have been for years were too big so i had to get size 4 and half!! my feet have lost weight lmao :D
 
thanks, im taking the decarb. dont know if its having any effect but i am staying in ketosis. will be taking lots of them on holiday next week ;) dreading the weight gain which i know will happen :(
 
Size 12 jeans...... That's excellent.... It's what I'm looking forward too (getting down to a 12)!!!!

I'm sure feet can loose weight, just like you do in your hands! I've noticed my ring is looser recently so i don't see why it can't happen with your feet!

Well done on your lose, I'm looking forward to your future loses while on the de-carb. Enjoy your holiday, don't worry to much, you'll soon get rid of what ever you might gain! Can't rush these things and you still have to enjoy life.

Lotty.xxxx
 
i fitted in to the size 12 hipster jeans but had spillage over the top but i could stil get them done up lmao.
looked on the scales this morning and it showed another 2lbs down since tuesday. bloody typical that i start losing weight again after so long of sts and now i will put it back on when my holiday starts on monday :(. its not good when weight takes over your life and you dread going on holiday as know that going to gain weight!
got a bit carried away with the drink last night so i am a bit hung over. had friends over and we thought it would be fun filming ourselves singing so we could find the best songs we sound good at for karaoke on holiday. im dreading watching it back later tonight. we couldnt even stand properly we were all so drunk! but it was a great night :D, my eldest daughter looked after my ittle'uns and was so nice to drink and not have to worry about the kids! took full advantage lol. anyways enough of boring you all to death lol. hope you all have a good weekend. happy friday peeps ;)
 
lol sarah, pop up to pontins southport and i will smuggle you in :D:D:D
morning all. not packed a thing for holiday yet. got half a list made but that is as far as ive got.
i am loving seeing the scales say 153 in the mornings when i weigh. got 13lbs to get to goal. i know its at the fat end of the healthy bmi but i dont care as i will be healthy and thats my goal!
so because of my holiday i will officialy weigh in tomorrow and will be moving my weigh in days to sundays after that :)
